Who Sues for a Divorce.
Ezekiel Kohn has begun suit for a
divorce against his wife, Mathilda Fried

failed to furnish those wifely affections
that the marriage contract calls for.
The plaintiff is fifty-one and the de-
PENDANT forty-three years of age. They
were married at Eisenach, Germany,
Dec. 90, 1869. They lived together in
the complete enjoyment of married life
until March Z, 1876, when, as he alleges,
she deserted him at Manchester, Eng
land. He further alleges that he knew
nothing of her whereabouts until he
arrived in Minnesota in December, 1886.
Feb. 81, 1887, he claims he found her
living in state of adultery with a man
in Minneapolis, and upon this discovery
he bases his suit. He alleges that they
are still living together. There are no
children. The case will come up at the
special term to-day.

Asa Fisher walked into the Merchants
hotel yesterday afternoon and wrote his
name i'll smooth, running style on the

he is one OF the very few citizens of that
town who is not an eccentric character.
He looks like an ordinary business man,
dresses in good taste, doesn't affect the
wild Western style and uses pure Eng
lish when ne talks. This is great deal
to say of a citizen of Bismarck. Oak.

made the home of Denny Honnafin and
the familiar tSpoopendyke."
Asa Fisher is yet young man, not
wlthstanding the fact that he has grown
up with the West. Several wears
ago, about the time the Northern Pa
cific was grading into Bismarck, Asa
walked into the town from somewhere,
and possessing no capital stock, other
than the strength that slumbered in his
muscles. he hired as a grader, and for
months tossed up dirt with shovel for
ordinary day wages. He was fellow
who attended very closely to his knit
ting and lived economically.
Bismarck seemed to suit him as
town, and after he had saved I'D little
pile of money. he quit the railroad grade
and going back to town, purchased an
interest in small saloon which he soon
lhad entirely under his control. Asa was

Condition Of Mr.. Knox, Injured in
the Sham Battle.

George D. Knox, who was severely
injured at the sham battle last Satur-
day, is still at st. Joseph's hospital. He
was seen by GLOBE reporter yester-
day, as he lay on his back with a BAN
dage covering his eyes. There were
two attendants present, a Grand Army
comrade and lady acquaintance of
Mr.. Knox. He is being attended by
Drs. Murphy and Van SIyke. 1t was
at first thought that the sight of one of
the eyes would be destroyed, but DR..
Van Slyke now entertains strong hopes
of saving both. The doctor removes
each day several specks of powder from
the face and eyes. Mr.. Knox's home is
at Hamilton, Mower county, Mimi,
where he has wife and children. He.
served all through the war in Company
c, Third Minnesota regiment. Col.
Mattson, who is now secretary of state,
was the third colonel of his regiment,
and is doing everything in his power to
add to the comfort of his stricken COM
rade. 1t is the opinion of the doctors
that Mr.. Knox, in a weeks time, will
have so far recovered as to be able to go
home.

HURRY UP THE BUILDINGS.
Complaints That the School House

Complaints InaC the SCHOOL House
improvements Are Delayed.
There are numerous complaints, and
especially among those connected with
the public schools, over the failure of
the contractors to have any of the new
buildings or additions completed at this
time-nearly the end of the first month
of the school year. Superintendent
Taylor said yesterday: Not one
of the buildings, or even an
addition. is finished as yet.
Halliday sessions are being held every
day in the Cleveland, German and Van
Buren, buildings, and the enrolment is
very large. One room in the Van Buren,
has III enrolment of $50. The eXpeeta-
ton was that these buildings and addi-
tons would be completed by the begiu-
ming of the year. The Cleveland and
German buildings, it is true, were de-
layed by the strike, but there is no strike
now. aud the buildings don't seem to be
badly crowded with workmen. As near
as we can estimate it, the total enroll
ment is now about $500, and of this the
High school has about 500. an increase
of about 100 over what it was at this
time last year -
